Our October chart of organic house has landed with some fresh tracks from our favorites such as DJ/producers Sebastien Leger and Tim Green as well as labels Tale & Tone and Hoomidaas. Number one of the chart this month is from an Argentinean up-and-coming DJ/producer, Polo. The style and production quality from this newer producer really caught our ears.
Another noteworthy release in this Chart is Tim Green’s ‘Lune,’ which is one track of six in his most recent album ‘Eastbound Sillohuettes’ with All Day I Dream. This is a really interesting release where Tim experiments with a fusion of club-music EP and artist album formats. We caught up with Tim Green in this interview to learn more about his creative approach.
Lastly, make sure to listen to Sebastien Leger’s new heater ‘In A Distorted Galaxy’ released on Lost & Found this month. Whether he’s trying to throw imitators off his trail or if he’s just following a new creative flow, we can’t say. What we can say for sure though is that this one hits different and we love the new sound.
Now its time to let the music do the talking. Dig into our chart below or skip to the end to listen to it all in our monthly-updated playlist.

What is Organic House Music?
Not sure what defines the sub-genre of organic house?
Throughout the 2000-teens, a few new underground styles were emerging and branching off from the vein of the deep house into what was being called playa tech, deep melodic house, and organica, among others.
It expresses its genetic imprint from deep house while merging with folk-rooted, acoustic sounds of the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa & North Africa, India, and the Mediterranean.
More recently, it has merged again with uplifting and euphoric melodies reminiscent of trance music from the days of old. Beatport arbitrarily slapped a label on all these for categorical purposes, and we’ve been going along with it since then. And don’t worry, even if your house music is non-organic, it’s still safe to consume.
